Id heard about the "Confetti" thing before and every time I hear it it's so upsetting. Can you imagine being told "oh don't worry, no one will see you completely nude" and that being a lie? Total unprofessionalism and violation by the filmmakers.
No one said he did though. The reference is pretty much understood by everyone to be a monty python gag. Specifically because it's a visual one and not hidden away in an audio only presentation.
@@phillydelphia8760 Ah. I got ya. But it’s a different context. One is a play. If I remember it’s supposed to be them convincing someone it’s a real horse. Although considering the kind of movie it is couldn’t you also say it’s an homage?
@@phillydelphia8760 Ah, but that's not what I thought when I saw it. While I love Life of Brian, I don't have quite the same feelings towards Holy Grail. In primary school during the 70s, school plays involving horses would often include coconut sound effects. So, the Holy Grail gag was basically a spin on that. As those were my memories of school, that's what the scene in Shrek the Third reminded me of and, being set in a theatre environment, had a more direct correlation to something like that than the Holy Grail gag. Being an American production, that might have been a happy accident. But Idle would have been aware of the origin of their own joke so I have no idea what he was getting so worked up about.
@@daviddavies3637 I'd have to look into exactly how Idle was reacting to it, because I have a suspicion his reaction is being hyped up here.

It's kind of a non drama and I'd be surprised if he really was "mad" after the career he's had.
@@AzathothTheTrueGod to be fair, I would have interpreted it as an homage, absolutely. I can't help but think his reaction to it is maybe being a little overhyped here for the sake of views and discussion/interaction etc.
thank you. i was going to point out that that wasn't his gag.. that's just how things are done. and it's still coconuts for horse hooves today. and celery for broken bones
Why do foley artists use celery for the sound of bones breaking? Why don’t they use small tree branches, large twigs, or even chicken bones to create that sound?
It wasn’t even homage they were not running through the forest on a fake horse with a guy with coconuts. Where do you think they got using coconuts from in the first place. That’s what they used them for.
I feel there's more to it than we know. Probably like, he want more MP joke in Shrek, rejected, then see the coconut scene and think Shrek "stole" the idea. But even this still make him look petty
Ive got one for you; little Dakota Fanning didnt know that Denzel actually dies at the end of Man on Fire; nobody had told her, and there she was seeing it for the first time at the Film Premier, and she just started crying & sobbing hysterically....poor girl was really upset!
Foley artists were using coconuts for hoof sounds well before Holy Grail The shot in Shrek was a BTS of filming a horse scene, it's not even a Python joke; it's just what you would see for that special effect
Did Eric Idle think he invented using coconuts as Foley work for horse hooves? I LOVE Monty Python and the Holy Grail, but I'm fairly certain that radio workers had used coconuts to make horse sounds long before the Monty Python did it...
As a huge Batman Returns obsessive, I remember reading a story, taken from Lisa Guerrero's (the investigative reporter, and former sports correspondent) biography of how much she enjoyed her time making the film for a very brief cameo, not realising, until the final credits, during the film's premiere, that her character had been billed as 'Volunteer Bimbo'. Apparently, she'd invited a friend with her, and was so embarrassed and enraged that her character was listed that way.
The Giant Claw(1957): The actors went above and beyond for a genre film at the time, only to then see the infamous monster effects. Reportedly, actor Jeff Morrow, the lead, walked out, went home, and got drunk.
I don’t blame Adrien Brody for being mad about not being told about his part being cut. Deceiving an actor about his role in a film is a rotten thing to do.
That was one of the weirdest things I ever heard about an actor's appearance in a movie. The director is talented but has some sort of social anxiety problem. Still, very disrespectful to allow him to go on the press tour instead of telling him or having someone telling him about it.
I thought for sure Sharon Stone would be number one. She even slapped the director before she stormed out. (Unless it was just a screening and not the premier. I just remember her telling the story on Inside The Actors Studio.)
Godzilla 1998 is not really an awful film, neither is the monster design. The mistake was to call it Godzilla. This is a mistake that seems to continue in Hollywood, See the Child's Play and Hellraiser reboots and Oldboy remake. It can be done correctly, watch the Candyman reboot.
IRT "Showgirls", there are so many fingers involved in making a movie that anyone can be responsible for ruining the movie no matter how good your acting was.
Frankensteins Monster The Original Monster Boris Karloff gave us one of the most memorable and greatest physical performances of all time. He had to pay for his fucking ticket.

He was *livid* ! Given him and Peter Graves were real life best pals, he understandably took such an insulting twist to Peters most well known role *very* Personally!

@@warrenwiley5656 Yup, Greg Morris walked out, he was absolutely Furious!

If that anecdote was true (which I seriously doubt), that would mean Gabriel Byrne is really not smart : there is a scene in which his character realizes who Keyzer Soze is and he calls him by his name while dying. Thinking he was Keyzer Soze after playing that scene would be pretty dumb. The anecdote comes from Kevin Spacey ; I guess he is a liar (which doesn't seem to be important compared to what he is accused of being).
As praised as Marlon Brando is as being one of the greatest actors who ever lived, I only ever see him in lists depicting him as the worse. Either for his ad lib accents, mannerisms, or off the cuff script alterations. Only times I usually see him praised in when Godfather or Apocalypto are mentioned
I have always felt quite sorry for Prowse, but…I am forever thankful that George and 20th Century Fox made the decision to use JEJ. It was just an after the fact decision and George being George didn’t even think about Prowse, for better or for worse.
Showing the coconuts on screen as an in universe source of a sound is a joke but I think it was meant as an homage You wouldn't hire Eric if you were going to steal from him, too See also Farscape's Ben Browder being cast in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
What is best movie gag? Monty Python coconut horse or Get Smart shoe phone? I think with iPhone as being in everyday public conscious, Get Smart shoe phone is more silly than leaping coconut horse gag.
I heard about that don't blame Gabriel for getting angry. I know they were all told the same thing but it doesn't make it less not hurtful. That is so sad about Boris. And Godzilla was butchered.
Singer couldn't have convinced each one to be Keyser Soze as Benicio del Toro died earlier in the film. Even if they shot the scenes not in order (which is common by the way), he would still know since his part per the script would be way shorter than the others.
Usual Suspects had lots of scenes shot that were never used. This included character death scenes and Keyser Soze reveal scenes. Singer went to a lot of effort on this one.
Rob Lowe in his autobiography talks about how upset he was (and still is) at the Premier of The Outsiders that Coppola had edited out basically his whole performance; all his friends and family were there.....
When I first saw Usual Suspects, in 1995, it became obvious that Verbal was going to be Keyzer Soze as soon as they got that sketch artist. The whole Keaton-was-Keyzer thing does make sense, and it fits Dave Kujan's character to be fixed on it, but I was already fixed onto Verbal. Also, would Keyzer have allowed himself to go to prison, or staged his own death and then reappear under the same name as the 1 he fake-died with?
Pretty sure I seen the "coconut used to sound like a horse" on a buggs bunny cartoon, and that it was a common thing in radio presentations... Probably long before Monty Python. People think the phrase "you and what army" came from Shrek according to comments in YT music for the song Arlandria by foo fighters.
Not an Actor But I Was Agitated at The Premier of The Haunted World Of El Superbeasto haven't been so Repulsed At a cartoon since Drawn Together Disgusting luckily I have better taste In Adult Animation
I've never seen it but I'm a fan of Verhoeven's other work (I didn't used to be, but his extreme style has grown on me), and knowing that Showgirls was meant to be satire makes me curious. I've only seen clips and shots of the film, but I have to say that on a technical level, the film at least looks good.
How can someone be considered a great actor when they can't even pull off an accent...? So many other actors deserving of the title of greatest actors of all time besides Marlon "I Love Myself" Brando...

They did the same to Pam Anderson with Barb Wire.
